Matt Begley took over the Walkley Cottage in December 2020: bad timing, some might say, especially for his first time running a pub.
There are two things Sheffield is world famous for: our greenspace, and our beer. We thought it was worth celebrating this by giving you some top places to run, walk or ride AND find a proper pub to start, end, or break up your adventure.
Sheffield is a city built on hills, so it's no surprise that many of its best-loved parks come with an incline and a stunning view as the reward.
A new major contemporary artwork is set to be installed along the Sheffield and Tinsley Canal this September, as international artist Alex Chinneck unveils an impressive looping canal boat structure measuring 13 metres long and six metres high.
Created by artist Alex Chinneck, the impressive canal boat sculpture named 'The Industry' has been unveiled to celebrate Sheffield's historic waterways and industrial heritage.
This particular walk is a superb short stroll, suitable for families with young children (although bear in mind that it’s not pushchair friendly) or for those who are looking for a leisurely amble with a café stop en-route. It also works well as a trail run and, if you’re looking for something more challenging, it’s easy to add extra miles via exploring the myriad of paths around the Burbage moors.
From juicy burgers and crispy fried chicken to burritos and bao buns, not forgetting some indulgent vegan delights too, see our guide for Sheffield’s street food highlights.
The cycle routes are located in Stocksbridge, Wharncliffe, Loxley, Rivelin and Redmires. To celebrate the launch of the routes, Trek Sheffield Fox Valley have added their support and are giving a free t-shirt to people who ride all five.
Sheffield Inspires is the new way of talking about Sheffield, to raise the city's profile, perception, reputation - and ultimately grow the economy. you can find out more about exactly what it is, how it was made, when and where you can use it or see it, and generally be part of championing why this is such a great city.
Traveling into and around the city centre is being made easier. The Connecting Sheffield: City Centre scheme has various projects to improve walking, cycling, and public transport.
